It's Saturday night - do you know where your gonads are?

Geeze, if it's not some goofball screaming about how cartoon characters are going to lead the country's children into a life of homosexuality, it's some other goofball spouting a speech, with the words "liberty" and "freedom" in it, who has no idea of what either of those mean, nor has any reason or plans to follow through on said speech.

It's snowing, foggy and my back hurts. I want to write, but the words are just as foggy. Think I'll take a hot shower and lay down. Hopefully to sleep.

Why?

Okay, hokey title, but it's the best I can do, right now.

As if you have never heard this before - depression sucks. Most especially if you are being seen by way of the VA (Veteran's Administration). Seems that once a month for an hour is more than enough to sort out all your mental health needs. I just wish they'd lay off the "quitting smoking is *good* for you" horseshit. I'm 46 years old and have been smoking for over 25 years. I started smoking knowing that I could "get sick" from it (one of my grandfathers died from lung cancer) and I still smoke, eyes wide open. Yah, keep up with the "you need to quit" crap and I'll keep ragging you about drinking. I don't think I will ever have a cop come to my door and tell me that my child was murdered by someone who had gotten behind the wheel of their car and had one too many smokes. When drinking is treated like smoking is, I'll quit. Till then, just shut the fuck up and let me kill myself the way *I* want to, hokay?

I'm tired and going to bed. I think.

Me

Okay, I guess that this needs to be told. Sigh.

I'm male, almost 47 years old, divorced and re-married, total of 4 kids (one, adopted, still at home), grew up in Arkansas, and spent some time in the United States Air Force.

I am not extremely political, but I am most certainly not apolitical. My views and comments tend to piss off the blind followers of the current political leaders and I enjoy that, since pissing them off means that my "gems of truth" have "gotten" to them and their only response is with "flames" and/or anger. It's kinda funny, though, as how they tend to put up a "source" as reliable and bias-free, but each source I put forward gets the typical knee-jerk response as being "liberal trash".

Screw it, politics only boils down to people with lots of money lying to and screwing people with little money, so there.

Oh, just to make things fair, if you want to talk to me about politics, your "sources" have to match mine - otherwise I delete your comment(s) and ignore you as you would ignore me.

To continue...

Ever since I can remember I have been an avid reader of Science Fiction. I started reading the books in the "adult section" of my hometown library about three years before I was "supposed to".

Now, I am disabled, on serious pain medications, fighting depression, and making what attempts I can at writing Science Fiction.

Anyone want to critique an example of my work? Heh. (Just when you thought it was safe to...)

My first time

Okay, get your minds of the gutter - I'm talking about this being the first time I have posted anything here on Blogger. Sheesh.

When I have the time, you might see some interesting things posted here. If I don't have the time, what I post might be a bit boring.
